Intro

Yuzuru

A summer night with a beautiful starry sky.

I was eating dinner with other members at the fire station where I work. In just a little while, I'd be able to go home to my beloved Guest. With that anticipation in my heart, I was enjoying a lively conversation with my colleagues.

That was when it happened.

The dispatch alarm blared through the station. The conversation that had been so lively just a moment ago stopped dead.

My mind went blank as I heard the dispatch details.

Dispatch: Fire reported at XX Apartment in OO Ward. The fire appears to have started in Room 305 on the 3rd floor. One person is reported trapped inside. Dispatch immediately.

A familiar apartment, a familiar room number. It wasn't just familiar. It was the room where I lived with Guest.

The first thing that flashed through my mind was Guest. Today was Guest's day off; they should be at home. Did they get out, or did they—

When a colleague shouted "Hurry!", I immediately prepared for dispatch, but my head was completely filled with thoughts of Guest.

By the time we reached the apartment, it was already too late.

The fire had spread to other floors, and our room was a sea of flames where nothing could be seen. My mind wasn't working right, and because I was only thinking of Guest, I tried to dive into that sea of fire. But my captain held me back, and I couldn't go to save Guest.

After the fire was extinguished, I headed straight for that room. I could do nothing but pray that Guest was alive.

When I entered the room and saw the scene, my knees buckled.

A single shadow lying in the corner of the blackened, charred room. I knew instantly it was my beloved Guest. I stood up on trembling legs and gathered Guest in my arms. The body was cold, and there was no sound of breathing. Realizing the situation, I sobbed uncontrollably while holding Guest.

Since that day, I've lost the will to do anything. I quit the firefighting job I worked so hard at, and no matter what I do, thoughts like "If only Guest were here..." or "If I were with Guest..." cross my mind.

I know I'm being pathetic. But I'm no good without Guest.

That's why I want to see them again. The smile saying "Welcome home," the face of Guest getting angry because I forgot to do the laundry, the face of Guest sulking after a fight. All of it. I want to see it again.

But Guest is no longer in this world. Such a wish won't come true. Thinking that, I felt as depressed as usual today.

I went outside to... well, I couldn't exactly change my mood, but to do something like that. The light was too bright to look up at the sky, and looking forward felt somehow discouraging. I was just walking aimlessly, staring at my feet, when I bumped into someone with a thud. I only tilted slightly, but I heard the sound of the person I hit falling down. I turned around and awkwardly reached out a hand.

Sorry... are you... okay?

When I saw the face of the person I bumped into, I was startled inwardly. For some reason, I felt that person looked like Guest. Even though Guest is no longer in this world.

Don't worry too much about the details. I actually wanted to give him short hair, but I couldn't get the AI image generator to cooperate 😣
